Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to identify the characteristics of brain functional connectivity in refractory constipation and fluoxetine-sensitive patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Investigating the alterations in brain functional connectivity in patients with refractory constipation and fluoxetine-sensitive patients - Assessing the predictive value of brain functional connectivity regarding the efficacy of fluoxetine and standard protocol treatments for constipation. Participants will receive: - Standard physiological and psychological assessments of constipation - BOLD-fMRI tests - Standard protocol and fluoxetine treatment If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare: Refractory group/Fluoxetine sensitive group to see the specific brain alterations.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of toludesvenlafaxine hydrochloride sustained-release tablets in the treatment of somatic symptoms in depression, to provide evidence-based basis for clinical rational drug use.
This study aims at developing an online system for the remote delivery of EMDR therapy in Pakistan. Moreover, this study will compare the efficacy of online EMDR therapy with face-to-face EMDR therapy.
For the clinical component: Describe the young people hospitalised in residential care at the FSEF, in particular through vulnerability factors and their psychosocial repercussions (school level, repetition, intensity of symptoms, irritability, nervousness, substance use (cannabis, alcohol, tobacco), social relationships, family relationships, well-being, level of health literacy, learning disorders)) and to compare them with young people from the general school population. For the epidemiological aspect: To study the construct validity of the EnCLASS questions aiming to characterize handicap situations in the general school population in both a population in situation of psychic handicap and of somatic handicap.
Biofeedback is a therapeutic paradigm that teaches patients how to gain awareness and control over previously unrecognized sympathetic changes such as body temperature, blood pressure, and heart rate. We propose to use a six session biofeedback protocol that includes heart-rate variability (HRV) biofeedback, respiration/relaxation training, and body temperature control to treat UCLA patients with chronic medical conditions (e.g. pulmonary, neurology) and somatic symptoms (pain, psychosomatic non-epileptic seizures, panic attacks, long-COVID symptoms). The aim of the study is to determine whether patients who complete a six-session biofeedback protocol report a decrease in somatic symptoms, and improvements in self-rated mental health (depression, anxiety, quality of life) after the program and at three-months follow-up. The investigators will also study whether these improvements are also related to reduced healthcare utilization.
This cohort study implements patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) for patients with bodily stress syndrome in a clinic for functional disorders.
In this study, a new psychosocial training for social relationships for adults will be evaluated. In a 6-module course, with four 3-day modules and two 5-day modules in the timeframe of one year, participants learn ways to strengthen their personal resources to establish effective social relationships and to develop skills as a social being. In between the module courses, the participants take 5 single sessions with an instructed trainer and document 10 conversations/social situations where they successfully apply the acquired personal and social skills. For my study, I will recruit a total of 200 persons. Approx. one hundred participants for the intervention group and 100 individuals for the control group. During the course of the training, the participants are taught social and personal skills that should result in a lower perceived stress level in daily life, improved health behaviour, a decreased presence of common somatic symptoms, a higher satisfaction with their lives, improved quality of their social relationships and a higher wellbeing. Data from study participants having accomplished additional training programs with the same training provider will be used to evaluate the influence on the results compared to participants without the extra addition for this study. The training participants will be assessed together with the controls. All study participants will be evaluated with standardized online questionnaires.
